GIRLsmarts4tech<\/b> is an organization hosted by the UBC Dept of Computer Science that empowers high school students through engaging and transformative workshops. On\u00a0Friday, Feb 27<\/b>, we will be hosting a half-day visit to LMI’s\u00a0Burnaby office for grade 8-12 students, to teach invaluable tech and professional skills and build interest in tech careers. Attendees will receive an office tour, a workshop on sensors, exclusive panels, and more! No experience necessary. This event is 100% free by design and a fun way for SD41 students to spend a Pro-D day.<\/p>\n
